What comes to mind when you hear the word "feminism"? We asked this question on social media and the responses were all over the map. Modern feminism is hard to define, but we try, with our panel: 

  • Dr. Barbara LeSavoy, director and assistant professor of Women and Gender Studies at SUNY Brockport
  • Hannah Murphy, director of projects and special events, Feminists for Nonviolent Choices
  • Noelle Evans, activist
  • Melanie West, activist
  • Michelle Faust, WXXI News
